Finding Venues On A Budget

When meeting rooms are booked up at the office it is often a chore to find the right venue within budget, so consider the following alternatives which are likely to be easy on your budget. Venue finding for corporte events is also a challenge for Personal Assistants. When the budget is low; however, you can avoid instructing a venue finder by considering one of the following alternatives for venue hire.

Local Council venues

Check your local council's website for available venues. You may find some surprisingly nice places to hire. Local councils sometimes have stately homes on their books, that have been converted to education and training facilities. It's worth the enquiry.

Pubs

With a bit of imagination you could find a unique location at a riverside pub. Some pubs have lovely function rooms in great settings. Perfect for formal and informal events.

Clubhouse at Sports Venue

Whether it's a cricket club or a rowing club, sports venues often have a clubhouse that can be hired for functions. Some clubhouses are quaint, so with the right linen, table decoration and lighting, they can be made to look spectacular. Especially when it looks out onto the green.

Church Halls

A church hall will definitely be outside the norms for a venue finder, and the same is true for most PAs, as churches are generally overlooked. You may find that there is a church within walking distance of the office that can provide all the facilities for your meeting or function at a fraction of the cost of other venues.

National Trust Houses

Sourcing a National Trust house for a special meeting or event is a rare treat for a venue finder, and probably costs less than you think. These grand old houses are sumptuous and have beautiful private gardens to add to the elegance and charm of the building.
